Looks like the hunter became the hunted.

Burned to death on a glacier. The last thing he said was "live by irony, die by irony."

Historians and medical examiners debate to this day whether his dying words were in fact ironic.
 
Any Canucks here ever heard of Cougar Island?

Not as sexy as it sounds...

Then again I do love cougars so not sure I wouldn't prefer them over an island full of "cougars". Hey @Fawlty , maybe that could be the next poll; a choice between an island full of cougars or one full of "cougars"

Remind me, I like it.

I can't actually remember if I've seen a cougar. They were all over the mountains in northern Utah, and I remember that I thought I had seen one far in the distance, but I can't remember whether I decided if I had seen one for sure, but I remember that I had made up my mind one way or the other. The confusion is because somebody was attacked not long after in the same area, so I had a "close call" moment in my head, but I remember doubting whether or not I had determined that it was a real close call. Any statement that I might try to make about that event today is in danger of being a lie.

But, I'm definitely sure that I saw a reasonably fresh paw print at an alpine pond I used to visit. It was alarmingly big. To protect myself and my family, I began clapping my hands together and loudly singing a song called something like "Hey go fuck yourself, Cougar" which became "Hey go fuck yourself, John Cougar Mellonball" because it made my brother laugh (this part is most likely not true). What I'm trying to say is that Gal Gadot is damn near an official cougar now (35 is my cutoff) and I greatly prefer making love on her over possibly being eaten next to a lake that doesn't even have any goddamn fish in it.

Even setting aside the subject, the idea of giving one of the forum's most prolific trolls, tag spammer, and bad faith posters a thread where participants are forced to treat his arguments with dignity is....problematic.

I remember when I was a kid I went camping. Towards the end I was wandering around our camp site and what do you know I found a fucking cougar skull, also had some other bone next to it. I really wanted to keep it but my dad insisted that the other family we were with should take it. I don't know why, maybe because their kid was younger and he felt he should be entitled to the cooler one. But I was really annoyed, as a kid I really loved animals. Had a bunch of books on them and stuff, I would've cherished that thing for the rest of my life. They lost it after a few years. At the time I did not realize what a find it was.

Of all the topics and posters he could've picked...

If he had picked a topic and poster at random from the WR there's a good chance he could've come up with something better.
 
Buy or sell this statement:

The reason fascism is dangerous is because it is popular. Almost by definition, most people will like fascism. Therefore, the most sacred duty of a Republic— if it is going to survive as such— is to protect the rights of its minorities.

By the way, just an aside for shitz and giggles, in the end, it was 10 consecutive coin flips that came up heads. What a weird thing.

I think next month is going to be a convincing Palis that the Earth is more than 2,000 years old.

Mostly sell. I think the problem is that fascism is popular enough. You only need about 30% to be true believers, and for the rest of society to accept/look the other way.

But I do agree that protecting the rights of the minority is key to maintaining a Republic. What is the value of society and laws if not to protect the most vulnerable among us?

LONDON (Reuters) - Britain’s equality watchdog said on Tuesday it was launching a formal investigation to determine whether Jeremy Corbyn’s Labour Party has discriminated against, harassed or victimized people because they are Jewish.

So fucking shameless. So we're now to the point where bad faith political accusations of prejudice can be leveraged into formal investigations for discrimination. The last time this watchdog group got involved in UK parties, it was because the party in question had constitutional provisions expressly permitting racial discrimination.

Make no mistake that telegraphed, cynical shit like this will be used by the Republicans here if Sanders, or maybe even Warren, get elected.

The whole pitch was good, quality-controlled threads. IMO, Cubo's presidency has to be judged a (predictable) failure.

Oh great, another AbiG thread, this time in the stickies.

@Cubo de Sangre this is why you don't give loonies access to mainstream platforms.

I agree that this is mostly true about fascism, but also agree w/Barry that it doesn't require "most" people to support it (it can definitely arise as a plurality out of a system with factions even if it's unpopular). I'd say that "a significant number of people will like fascism almost by definition." And I'd say that minorities in political power who are not typical minorities (like women or anti-establishment liberals such as educators) are especially vulnerable to fascism, and when they are included I think the second part holds true enough.
 
This video is fucking crazy. I'd like to see what @Yorkist thinks of it. This guy is lucky to be alive.



Watch this and tell me we dont have an issue.
